o hit and punish, come at me." Zong Yu pulled Fang Jinshu behind him, protecting her.The elder coldly glared, “You’re here for me Well then, you give me Fang Jinyu as a divorce and pay fifty taels of...Fang Jinshu wanted to speed up their return journey. Yulian was puzzled, "Sister-in-law, Young Master Zhao seems to have a good personality and cares about you quite a bit. Even if we're late going back, he probably wouldn't be angry, right"

After all, sister-in-law is busy with important matters, she didn't mean to make him wait.

Fāng Jǐnxiù didn't know what to say, after all, her sixth sense had never failed her.

"Let's go back first and talk later. It's never good to be late when you've made a promise, and Master Zhao is quite busy."

Jade Lian also thought it was a good idea.

East Market and Lee's home are over two kilometers apart, spanning three or four streets and five or six alleys. The crowds along the way make it far from a straightforward journey.

Even though Fang Jinxiu had hurried, she arrived at the Li family's gate after nearly half an hour.

Since last night, Fang Jinshu said she wanted him to come see her tomorrow, Zhao Xingzhou has been excitedly anticipating it. He wonders what Fang Jinshu wants to talk about by specifically asking for him.

Although they had agreed to meet at noon, he finished his work early in the morning and arrived an hour ahead of time. He first sat inside Li's house waiting.

After waiting for an hour and a half, he came out again to wait. He stood outside the door and waited for almost another hour, but little by little, the anticipation and smile on Zhao Xingzhou's face disappeared.

Fang Jinshu saw a person standing at the entrance of Li's house from afar. She instantly wanted to turn around and run away.

Unfortunately, Zhao Xingzhou kept his eyes fixed on the street corner. As soon as she appeared, he saw her.

"Fang Jinshu! We were supposed to meet at noon, what time is it now"

This tone of a wronged young wife, one would think they have some unspoken relationship.

Even a naive girl like Yu Lian could sense that Zhao Xingzhou's tone was off.

Unable to avoid Fang Jinxiu, she could only pretend as if nothing had happened and turned her head to walk towards him.

"Excuse me, Young Master Zhao. I apologize for keeping you waiting. Why don't we go inside and talk"

Speaking on the street like that, she wasn't afraid of being misunderstood, but rather worried about it.

Fang Jinshi took a step inside, but she realized Zhao Xingzhou hadn't followed. The moment she turned her head, that bad feeling crept back into her heart.

When she saw the teardrops welling up in Zhao Xingzhou's eyes, her whole being was struck by lightning.

Yu Lian already had a beautiful filter for Zhao Xingzhou, and when the handsome man cried, this little girl immediately panicked.

"Young Master Zhao, why are you crying"

My sister-in-law didn't mean to keep you waiting, it was all that Wang family young master. He had to drag my sister-in-law around while talking business!

When Fang Jinshu heard this, her eyes widened in surprise. She hurriedly reached out to cover Yu Lian's mouth, but it was too late. This little girl was too quick with her words and had already finished speaking.

He had to ask my sister-in-law when she was going to divorce my brother. He's such a jerk, he even tried to pry into my brother's relationship!

"If he hadn't been so slow, my sister-in-law and I would have been back ages ago."

As soon as Yulian finished speaking, Zhao Xingzhou's tearful eyes disappeared in the blink of an eye. His gaze changed, becoming cold and ruthless.

"Who are you talking about"

Yulian was taken aback by his sudden change in expression and stammered, "Lord... Lord Wang's eldest son."

Wang Yangming! He ate the heart of a bear and the gall of a leopard, daring to scheme against Fang Jinshu.

"Yu Lian, go in first."

Seeing her sister-in-law's complexion was off, Yu Lian knew something was wrong, even if she didn't understand what she had said. She sensed the atmosphere was tense and perhaps shouldn't have mentioned Wang Dajiu

Why shouldn't it be mentioned, Yulian couldn't figure it out. She obediently listened to her sister-in-law's words and went into the kitchen to prepare lunch. She and her sister-in-law hadn't eaten lunch yet.

It's all that Wang Dashi's fault. He kept saying strange things, scaring his sister-in-law so much that she didn't even dare to stay in the restaurant for lunch. She went straight back home.

Later, after Auntie and Master Zhao finish their talk, they'll definitely be hungry.

As soon as Yu Lian left, Zhao Xingzhou immediately spoke up.

"Wang Yangming is not a good person at all, he's a real heartbreaker! He has ambiguous relationships with several young ladies in town. Don't be fooled by him!"

Fang Jinshi raised an eyebrow. "What does it have to do with me if he's a heartbreaker"

"I was just there to do business."

Zhao Xingzhou's cheeks were flushed with anger. "When conducting business, one should also consider the other party's character. Someone who treats women so lightly and has a reputation for being frivolous wouldn't be a reliable business partner."

“I, I’ve already signed the indenture to you. What business do you have that you can’t talk to me about Is there anything Wang Yangming can do that I can’t”

Fang Jinxiu was speechless and died.

How could such a normal business negotiation be twisted by Zhao Xingzhou's words to sound like she was cheating and having an affair with another mannds."As long as it doesn't disappear, that's enough." Zongyu quietly let out a breath of relief.Fang Jinshu still had many things she hadn't fully confessed, mainly because she was worried that Zong Y...
